1) a rubber ball has been dropped and is bouncing off the
floor.Draw a motion diagram of the ball during the brief time
intervalthat it is contact with the floor. show 4 or 5 frames as
the ballcompresses, then another 4 or 5 frames as the ball expands.
What isthe direction of the acceleration during each of these parts
of themotion?

2) Draw a picture of the ball in contact with the floor andidentify
all the forces acting on the ball.

3)draw a free body diagram of the ball during its contact with
theground. is there a net force acting on the ball? if so in
whichdirection.?

4) Write a paragraph in which you described what you learned
fromparts a to c and in which you answer the question: how does a
